Rant! Either our President lied..or his lack of awareness is cause for concern!

April 15, was of course tax day. As we all know, it was also a day where Americans across the nation got together to protest government spending and high taxes. Interestingly, ABC news reported the President of the United States was “Unaware of Tea Parties”. This is very strange since EVERYONE I know was aware of the scheduled tea parties, even the people who have no interest in politics. So how can our President be “unaware”? Is he not briefed constantly on the events, issues and news? I mean one would think since the Department of Homeland Security had just issued a report warning of domestic right wing terrorists….these tea parties, of which there were bound to be some “right-winger” attendees must have been made known to the President right? I mean if right wingers are being accused of terrorism & if thousands of right wingers are expected to turn up at protests across our nation on tax day……well…..according to DHS…this would definitely be cause for concern right? And our President is made aware of these sorts of “dangers” right? If BO is so oblivious to the goings on in his own country then how can we take any policy he implements seriously?

Come on…..this is rubbish….these were events attended by Americans across the nation & our President had no idea? Incredible…….Of course we know Barack Obama knew of these protests…yet it is nothing to him to blatantly lie & claim otherwise; how Presidential!

This post is more of a rant…because quite simply I am fed up with the state of our politics….I was going to write a more factual post with stats and data about the tea parties..but when I was searching for info..I kept finding reports on media reports of teabagging as a sexual pun & the Un-Americanism of the peaceful tea parties & then I got distracted by reading the stupid comments people leave & I am just truly disgusted. Why are so many liberals void of common sense. I am disgusted by the lack of intelligence portrayed in their comments & their irrational reasoning…..seriously who are these people? There is something very wrong with people who fail to accept personal responsibility, are internally angry, blame George Bush for their failures in life, heart abortions, heart marijuana, champion Castro & communism, idolize failed socialist policies, won’t accept that there are radical Muslim terrorists but are the first to warn of right winger terrorists, refer to the horrors of terrorism as “man made disasters”, believe successful people owe them, think Dick Cheney is the reason they had their electric shut off (seriously that’s what someone told me- I swear), label and classify other human beings in an effort to divide…. I can go on & on…but I have to start studying for finals…so till then!

The 84 Million Dollar Government Website to highlight federal spending and economic recovery!

The Obama Administration promised the people transparency & accountability. President Obama has since broken that promise numerous times, the most blatant being with passage of the “stimulus bill”. The bill whose details were kept secret from the people and even many of the legislatures whose job it was to read the bill: Ultimately however, the bill was signed, sealed, and delivered to the President who neglected to provide any concrete answers (no surprise here) to any speculation arising from the American people (who are we anyway). This country was nearly divided on the necessity of this stimulus bill and ultimately our objections went were tossed aside without regard by the Obama administration and the majority of Congress.

Since the passing of the “stimulus” it has been made public that the members of Congress failed to read the entire bill they signed & passed & debted us with….the AIG bonus scandal emerged & both Congress and the administration deflected fault onto anyone but themselves..
We have had however more promises again by the Obama Administration of even more Accountability & Transparency (cause their just so good at it) regarding all the “stimulating” money which is soon to be spent….In fact VP Joe Biden is in charge of the Recovery.Gov website which will supposedly provide detailed info on where and how our future debt is stimulating…..

A few things to ponder….Early on during an interview the man in charge , VP Biden, could not remember the websites name or “number” during a television interview… why VP is even in charge of this website when there is an Accountability and Transparency Chief in the administration?……There was already a website in place which accounts for Federal spending called USAspending.gov…….the Accountability & Transparency Act of 2006 actually requires a “single searchable website” for people to use in order to track Federal spending….Recovery.Gov is thus far irrelevant at its supposed purpose….AND that RECOVERY.GOV & USAspending.gov both exist; there are now two websites which in essence violates the terms of the 2006 ACT, Barack Obama was a co-sponsor of the act so all this “transparency and accountability talk is not new; it has been in law for nearly 3 years…but most importantly…..according to the Accountability and Transparency chief Earl Devaney, the majority of is $84 MILLION DOLLAR budget was spent on developing Recovery.GOV.

WTF? How is it even possible to spend 84,000,000.00 developing a website? Why is it necessary to develop an 84 million dollar website when a perfectly good, relatively new one, with an astoundingly similar purpose already exists? This is the Government we want to hand over our tax money to so that they can reallocate it? THIS IS BLATANT WASTEFUL SPENDING….this government is going to run our banks, industries, economy, policy, and defense? We are in serious trouble!
